Shorthairs

This breed is both impressive and self possessed and anyone who meets a British Shorthair is sure to immediately fall for it. My first love in British was Dorothy Parrys beautiful White girl Int Ch. Hytek May Blossom and after waiting for two years we got a call from Dorothy saying she had a little girl for us. Thank you so much Dorothy for your help and for entrusting Sliabh Cats with Angel.

We then decided to get a friend for Angel so we went to visit Glengath cattery. Here we met Toni who has been great to us and she introduced us to a cranky looking blue girl who reminded us immediately of Lucy, our Persian, that we lost the year before. Hence this blue baby now lives with us and is called Lucyliu. Thank you so much for everything Toni.

Now British Shorthairs are becoming our main breed. They are so easy to live with and are gentle, loving and fun but they are not 'in your face cats' as they are independent. Here are the rest of the British family.

Lee came to live with us as an adult and I was concerned as to how he would settle and especially since he loved his previous owner so much and would miss her. After three days both my worries and his Mum's worries were put to rest. He is the most gentle and easy going boy one could hope for. He is a beautiful example of the breed and has an interesting pedigree that brings in almost every Irish British breeder. He is producing lovely kittens and is very gentle with his visiting Ladies. He was Best in Show at the Cork Cat Club show in 2002. Leider is now retired and living life as a pet.

What can I say about Lucy???? We adore her. Her dad is Lee and she looks like him but is much bolder and cheekier. Lucy now lives in luxury and loves having babies every so often. She is such a lovely person and a dream to live with.

Jade had her first show at SABCCI 2007 and got Best Brithish Kitten.

We are hoping she will follow in her parents footsteps. Thanks to Ronnie Brooks for allowing us to use her stunning boy. 3 shows and 3 CC's, We are so thrilled with this lovely lady.
